Also, Dell would not cut OS upgrades because it would greatly reduce their competitiveness. One of the reasons I got the Axim was for its options and upgradability (CF & SD, removable battery). These ideas are now catching on with the competition, so Dell must keep up. Besides, right or wrong , the number of people who hacked the update is going to be incredibly miniscule.

Someone in another thread mentioned a suit by MS against Dell. I say get your head out of your a@@. The lawyer fees alone would be more than the possible loss MS incurs at under $10US per license. On top of that, Dell can not be held liable for someone working around a security measure. Hell, MS can't even keep everyone from hacking their own systems.

Just my little rant and $0.02.
